Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Croydon and nearby locations:

  • andrewrogoff Andrew Rogoff (@andrewrogoff) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia Yes, it was listed there but the 1st page in my account said there were no known issues. Come on, I think you know exactly what the problems are with your rubbish status updates.

  • Hebsie Heather Bower (@Hebsie) reported from Camden Town, England

    @johnnyjimbob @LeftieK13 @RLong_Bailey Repairs still come under the heading of infrastructure, also upgrades. Don’t really care who owns Virgin media now, the point was excess profits go to shareholders, not to improving service. I remember when post office, rail and energy all nationalised. Not a crazy ****** system.

  • adrian_pennelli Mr P (@adrian_pennelli) reported from Hackney, England

    Ah well. So it will be good riddence to @EE at the end of my contract and hello to @virginmedia and @Virgin as they have been excellent dealing with my wife's issues unlike you lot. Dreadful service from @EE where the customer is taken for granted. #poorservice #poorcustomercare

  • maryhippychick m a r y (@maryhippychick) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia absolutely appalling service recently like this customer

  • KateRenton Mrs R (@KateRenton) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia We are struggling to talk to your teams on the phone @virginmedia to discuss our refund for our 4 day loss of service. Getting fed up with this.

  • BrianBr48598668 Brian (@BrianBr48598668) reported from Camberwell, England

    Virgin media are so shit

  • RapidBI Mike Morrison (@RapidBI) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia I pay for customer service, not low cost forums. I pay a lot for a premium product, I guess you have just lost a 20 year customer

  • andrewrogoff Andrew Rogoff (@andrewrogoff) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia The issue’s been resolved. Please just fix your terrible status reporting and update system.

  • bigH_7 H‼️ (@bigH_7) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia so when we give our 30 day cancellation notice because of your shitty service you decide to cut the internet out every few hours you ******* chuths

  • bruttium bruttium (@bruttium) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia I called yesterday about this xmas chaos plus the bill I just received and the lady didn't know what I was talking about. I said I was considering leaving VM and she promised her manager would call within 2 hours. Never happened.

  • DavidClark38 David Clark (@DavidClark38) reported from Richmond, England

    Hi @virginmedia you seem to have sent me my latest bill without any reduction for the 4 days without any service leading up to Xmas (TW12 postcode). Can you let me know when compensation will be refunded. Thanks.

  • 28Zizou Sab (@28Zizou) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia Doesn't help answer my question. The virgin media app restricts a user to just the channels. Whereas on the @btsport app the user can stream all games and switch between the matches.

  • jackreed08 Jack Reed (@jackreed08) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Not only do I have TV issues also my internet keeps dropping out! And yes re booting it does sort it out but rather annoying clambering behind the TV all the time 🤬

  • RapidBI Mike Morrison (@RapidBI) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia No, but more failed, incompetence calls with tech support. Forums cannot change your servers, but tech support can Another few days of waiting with heavily restricted services and no sign of client service.i have spent over 20k with you over the years.

  • RapidBI Mike Morrison (@RapidBI) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia 3 of your tech support staff say it cannot be changed. I know it can be. Your staff are either incompetent or lack customer care

  • munirawilson Munira Wilson MP (@munirawilson) reported from Richmond, England

    @PhilippaNewis @virginmedia I think the so-called compensation offer is inadequate and the process to secure it is appalling too. @VirginMediaCorp CEO is about to receive a letter from me where this very point is raised, along with a number of other issues relating to the outage.

  • martinTayx Martín Pane 🐦 (@martinTayx) reported from Camden Town, England

    @Strippin @btbusinesscare @WeAreOpenreach Internet I'm the UK is shockingly awful. It took Virgin Media 6 months to install a cable to my house after repeatedly stating it would only take 1-2 months. 🙈

  • RapidBI Mike Morrison (@RapidBI) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia Only after I set a disconnect date, even then I was given conflicting data. The solution is to send me a new router, when there is nothing wrong with mine!

  • myatt1965 Jonathan Blackmore (@myatt1965) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia 8 pound credit for 4 days with no service in SW19! Not the best customer retention strategy. 😫

  • joybrenda Brenda Franco (@joybrenda) reported from Stratford, England

    @virginmedia , how can some One be removed from your mailing list, as they keep getting mail shots, but have no wish to be a virgin cus tomer, and find these letters irritating. Thanking you In anticipation of your help in this matter.

  • e_oconnell Eleanor O’Connell (@e_oconnell) reported

    @virginmedia Its almost been a week now and the internet is still not working and cutting out on work calls, i’m not sure what’s going on with fixing the area issue but it shouldn’t take 6 days?

  • PPLOM1 Sarah Lorimer (@PPLOM1) reported

    @virginmedia Can I person contact me about this ? There is no problem with Virgin in the area I've checked with all my family and friends. It's a problem with my box so I need someone to fix it ASAP

  • L0SH none (@L0SH) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, we currently have no internet in BS8 and haven't for over an hour now. Is there a problem? Do you know when it will be fixed? Thanks

  • mbarnett87 Mark Barnett (@mbarnett87) reported

    @virginmedia Please fix your cable / broadband.

  • L0SH none (@L0SH) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks, the link doesn't work but the service checker on your website is now saying that you're doing work in the area today and tomorrow and there'll likely be no service? Is that true? I have my PhD defense scheduled over zoom tomorrow morning! - I need a broadband connection!

  • aleemullah2 aleem ullah (@aleemullah2) reported

    @virginmedia I call on that number he didn’t solve my problem

  • KeeperDavey DaveyTheKeeper (@KeeperDavey) reported

    Honestly hate virgin media ahhh, its down in my area and has been playing up for the past several days, and you call them and it just says sorry you experiancing problems, it should be fixed by 4:30pm.. Got a bad back so cant really do much and now i cant even watch films on tv..

  • Bellelctaylor Belle Taylor (@Bellelctaylor) reported

    @virginmedia It's 03454541111 (followed by choosing (or being transferred to) accounts/renewal). I have still yet to be able to talk to someone who can help. I was on hold for so long, they said they'd ring me back. I admittedly missed this call but have had no more attempts since.

  • dandartington Dan Dartington (@dandartington) reported

    @virginmedia It’s fine now. It came back on at full time. Somewhat bad timing to say the least

  • bromleybill Bill Torrance (@bromleybill) reported

    @virginmedia @PaulaJHowarth Excuse me @virginmedia, if you are defaulting on your obligation to provide your customer with a service you have contracted for, she should have every right to terminate without penalty #unfaircontractconditions
